1997 Mercury Mountaineer makes squealing noise when idling?

It sounds like you need a new serpentine fan belt.

slips or makes noise and wont go n reverse

A pig makes a squealing sound.

A hog sometimes makes a snorting sound, and sometimes makes a squealing sound.

The noise a pig makes when it is angry or hurt.

If your car makes a squealing sound when you are turning it is because your brakes have worn out. When the brakes wear down below a certain point, a wire pops loose. That makes a squeaking sound.

I have a 2004 freestar that also makes a squealing or "whistling" as I call it. I've had the ford mechanics look at it and they said the brakes are fine. I think it has something to do with the alloy wheels. The whistling starts on our van after it goes above 35 mph. As far as I can tell it's not a major problem just an annoyance.

It means to make a noise that a Guinea pig makes. Or even more, the noise that a pig pig makes.

Mercury was a division of Ford

Mercury is an element. Mercury is purely made up of mercury atoms.

I would like to know this too, My car does the same thing but only when it's cold outside and only for a few seconds at a time. It's a steady hoot sound

Keyless entry codes for most makes and models can be obtained from a dealership with the VIN number and identification. If the code has been changed by a third party then the dealership will not be able to retrieve it.?æ

either your hand brake has got something wrong with it and is stickingm, so that makes your tires rub against the road which makes a horrible noise!

With it's standard engine option the Mountaineer has towing capacity of just under 7000 lbs. It's best to get the towing packing if you buy a new model and intend to pull a boat or trailer. This makes the vehicle handle much better while towing. Here's a review of the vehicle's specifics for towing http://www.trailerboats.com/output.cfm?id=1421857

Water from the road has splashed up into the engine serpentine belt causing belt slippage that makes a squealing noise. The sqealing is one of your engine assessories that use the serpentine belt to drive it.

The squealing sound you hear when your car brakes are wearing out is referred to as a "squealer." This indicator is a strip of metal that when the brake pad wears down makes contact with the rotor making a metal on metal noise.

I don't know to what extent mercury is still being used, but it makes sense to phase it out: mercury is extremely toxic. If a mercury thermometer breaks, you have to be careful not to breathe the vapors.

Mercury is an element (No. 80 on the Periodic Chart) which means that the only substance that makes up mercury is mercury.

More than likely the fan belt is a little loose - easy to fix.

possibly you need a better grade of gas?

I'll bet the fuel pump makes noise when the engine is running on the road too. You just can't hear it then. It's possible you have a bearing getting ready to seize up. I think I would replace the fuel pump now before it leaves you walking.

NO it makes no difference.

Mercury is a toxic heavy metal. Some compounds of mercury are much more toxic than elemental or metallic mercury, the most dangerous being methyl mercury.

Liquid mercury can conduct electricity, it's what makes mercury thermostats work. As for solid mercury, it conducts electricity in solid phase as all metals do.

I think we figured it out. Believe it is the throw out bearings.
